Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Mobile CARE Application Project

Agreement Number:

903579

Duration: from Apr 1, 2018 to Apr 30, 2019
Description:

DriveABLE is adapting its cognition assessment technologies into a simple, accessible, and most importantly mobile-friendly pre-screening cognitive evaluation tool. In conjunction with the neuroscience and machine learning departments of the University of Alberta, DriveABLE has been working to validate its scoring platform for use in a mobile application (called CARE App). DriveABLE must also develop an adaptive IT and back-end platform. It will manage data that will be processed through machine learning algorithms that continuously validate and improve the accuracy of the mobile cognition evaluations. The mobile platform is expected to be commercialized once the data and machine learning infrastructure is established.

Develop in-house design and integration capabilities to automate and optimize GIS protocols and LiDAR based surface files & Spatial data

Agreement Number:

903671

Duration: from Apr 1, 2018 to Oct 31, 2019
Description:

Vieworx will be developing an automated calibration process for the Velodyne HDL-32 Sensor that will perform verification of all the client spatial datasets collected to validate relative accuracy of the system. In addition, Vieworx will integrate a Sequoia camera to the LiDAR mounted drone. Further a mobile application platform will be designed & build to view and analyze all the necessary or valued spatial data from the client’s mobile devices using the client specific GIS protocols. This will be very attractive to clients who do not have the capability to manipulate spatial data.

Duration: from Apr 1, 2018 to Apr 30, 2019
Description:

The Firm is developing a pharmacological therapy using drugs that target the alpha2beta2 subtype of nicotonic acetylcholine receptor to counter respiratory depression associated with opiates (e.g. fentanyl), propofol, alcohol, barbiturates, apnea of prematurity, obstructive and central sleep apnea, brain and spinal cord damage, and genetic disorders affecting breathing (e.g. Pompe Disease). They will perform a systematic series of pre-clinical studies using rodent models to determine the most effective candidate compounds to be tested in early stage clinical trials.
